Every guest benefits the National Trust
The History of Historic House Hotels Ltd
In September 2008 HISTORIC HOUSE HOTELS LTD and all its interests in BODYSGALLEN HALL, HARTWELL HOUSE and MIDDLETHORPE HALL, became the property of the NATIONAL TRUST, by donation, to ensure their long-term protection and with all profits henceforward benefiting the houses and the charity.
This autumn marks four years since the three Historic House Hotels – Bodysgallen Hall in North Wales, Hartwell House in Aylesbury and Middlethorpe Hall in York, were gifted to the Trust. Each house has a fascinating history and has been beautifully and sympathetically restored by Historic House Hotels Ltd, which was set up in 1979 to rescue and transform run-down country houses. As Sarah Staniforth, Museum and Collections Director for the National Trust says, ‘the donation of these hotels is one of the most generous in the Trust’s history. The profits go into conserving these important buildings and enabling them to function as they were originally intended – as country houses full of life and people. Any surplus revenue goes towards the general funding of the Trust.’ Each building is at least 300 years old, and there are few hotels of such charm and historic interest as Hartwell House, Bodysgallen Hall and Middlethorpe Hall.
In the past, each has been home to remarkable people. At Hartwell House (leasehold until 2111 from the Ernest Cook Trust), the exiled King Louis XVIII of France lived for five years with his Queen and members of his court. Bodysgallen Hall was the home of the Mostyn family, who have featured prominently in Welsh history, and Middlethorpe Hall was once occupied by the 18th century bluestocking and diarist, Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, who declared it a ‘very pretty place’.
The houses certainly provide greater comfort than that enjoyed by the previous occupants, as we have also sought to be faithful to the original atmosphere and style of each.
Guests can enjoy restorative pleasure in the superbly appointed Health and Fitness Spas, where swimming pools, gymnasia and state-of-the-art beauty treatments await. All three hotels have outstanding restaurants and serve delicious food that is mainly British, with a few light continental inspirations.
